Industry Reviews
There are three main problems which any translator of the Analects has to face: the reader's lack of shared cultural background, so that footnotes or paraphrase have to be supplied; the terseness of the text; and the occurrence of passages which defy understanding. . . . The Huang solution is to leave the difficulties in the text and to place notes immediately after each chapter. . . . This is messy on the page, and some of the notes are pointless. . . . The Analects are never going to have the appeal of great literature in their own right. They are neither quotable nor grippingly readable. The interest of all versions really comes from the expositions of Confucianism which accompany and selectively draw from the text. The fullest of these is to be found in the 1979 Penguin Classics translation by D.C. Lau. Chichung Huang has little to add. Annotation copyright H.W. Wilson Company.
